Tuition and Financial Aid
Tuition Policies for 2025-26
Tuition for preschool will be $850 for Preschool (2 half days per weeks) and $1500 for Prekindergarten (4 half days per week). A difference this year is that preschool families may apply for tuition assistance from the Catholic Education Foundation (Archdiocese of Cincinnati), if it is desired. There will not be any aid from IC School available for preschool unless there are extenuating circumstances. (In this case, a discussion must be held with the principal, Mrs. Polly Muhlenkamp.)
In K-6, it currently costs $9,000 to educate each child, and we are asking that all families apply for the Ed Choice Expansion Scholarship through ODE or another appropriate state scholarship. About 85% of our families qualify for a full scholarship of $6,166. We are also asking all families to apply for tuition assistance from the CEF by completing an application at FACTS. The CEF is the Catholic Education Foundation, an endowment fund established from the "One Love, One Hope, One Faith" Campaign several years, with a definite amount set aside for tuition assistance from the Archdiocese. Families who are active parish members can apply for the St. Isidore Scholarship of $750 per student. IC will provide financial aid for families based on the family's FACTS application to help fill necessary gaps. We are committed to doing everything we can to make a Catholic School education affordable for your family.
Information and links about how to do each of these things is provided on the Registration page under Current students and the Enrollment page under Prospective Students.
